Chapter 5: The Man in the Shadows
It became very boring to cross the desert, and there was little communication between that team and Lin Xi and their side.
It is estimated that there is still some defensiveness between each other, after all, in this desert, those who have no defense against you at all are fools.
Whoever is not a long-time existence, even if it is a good-natured person, it is already very good to be able to help you, and it is somewhat unrealistic to expect him to accept you without any scheming.
After all, if you don't even have this bit of defense, it is estimated that you will be the first to take precautions, or you are trying to do something, holding back the bad in the dark and trying to clean you up, or you are really stupid and sweet, such an existence, in the rivers and lakes, will not live long.
Along the way, the carriage convoy also provided them with water and food on time, Lin Xi and they did not refuse to come, it seems that they have been in the desert for a long time, and the water and food they bring are definitely a lot more, in this case, this love remembers, and the enjoyment of peace has become, and Lin Xi can't do this kind of thing if he is wronged, even if they don't actually need water and food, but it is much more comfortable than nothing.
There was hardly much communication along the way, and even Chu Mo wanted to talk casually several times, but finally gave up.
Those so-called white-clothed guards are absolutely conscientious, even when they talk to you, they are full of vigilance, Lin Xi can't do such a thing as a hot face and a cold ass, at least, in this case, he still has such pride.
However, in this entire convoy, Ye Liuli is not bad to them, although there is not much communication, but as long as there is a little wind and grass here, the other party will come to investigate as soon as possible.
It's not curiosity.,But really care about them.,This girl who is quite beautiful in her own right.,It's easy to arouse the favor of others.。
On this day, they finally met an oasis that was not small, and the group rested on it very comfortably.
According to what Ye Liuli said, there are still three or four days to go, and they can get to the Liuli City, Lin Xi and they are more or less happy in their hearts, they have finally found an inhabited city, right?
In fact, they could have gone directly through the sky, and even if their understanding of the space was enough, it was not impossible to tear the space in, but Lin Xi more or less admitted this feeling in his heart, feeling that the safety of this group of people would still be threatened, so he followed all the way and did not walk away directly.
In fact, it is also a matter of their vision, after all, in the Nine Heavens Continent, even if it is the Great Song Dynasty, there are already as many masters as many as dogs, such a team They are naturally quite worried, if there is a great master, how can this group of people resist?
You must know that in this low-level plane, anything can happen, especially in this extreme environment, if there is really a Ning Dan Realm master who drags the old man of the other party, it is not impossible for this convoy to be directly wiped out.
It may be a problem of knowledge, Ye Liuli thought that the team that was foolproof was really full of loopholes here in Lin Xi, and it could even be said that it would be wiped out by blowing a breath.
Of course, Lin Xi is not unfounded, although he has not said it all along, his strong perception still perceives that this desert is not uninhabited.
There were other teams not far from them, and it might seem that some well water did not interfere with the river water with this team, and even the two sides did not know the existence of the other, but it was still a little danger after all.
If it is really that kind of team coming towards this team, this team will be difficult to resist, and in the case of sparse population in the desert, even if this team is all wiped out, I believe that no one will be able to find the slightest clue.
"The seniors on the other side!" Suddenly, after Lin Xi drank the water, he said a word casually.
Suddenly, everyone in the team next to them became vigilant, obviously, in such a situation, they didn't know whether the group in front of them was friend or foe, and the sense of vigilance that they had never felt before suddenly rose.
No matter what kind of existence exists, if they really dare to make a move against their team, this group of white guards will defend Miss to the death, no matter how strong the opponent is.
In such a situation, it is only natural to be vigilant at all times.
At least, the white-clothed guards before looked at these three people a little unpleasantly, not to mention the unknown origin, and they seemed to have a casual temperament, is this despising their team?
Even if Lin Xi and they are a little hidden, but that kind of careless attitude and expression will still emerge more or less, it seems that this guy didn't take him in his eyes at all, and now, suddenly speaking, is this really ready to do it?
Almost all the guards were solemn at this time, obviously, in such a situation, they couldn't help but protect their master, miss, this is a big man in Liuli City, no matter what, nothing can happen.
If something really happens, won't the master die of sadness? This group of loyal guards never thought about their own safety, and tried their best to think about their own masters and their own young ladies.
The whole scene suddenly fell into a burst of embarrassment, and the atmosphere seemed to be about to start a big war.
After a while, an old man appeared in the carriage, looking very kind, and even more or less old wrinkles made people feel harmless to humans and animals.
Only Lin Xi and the others understand very well that this old man is the real Dinghai Divine Needle of this team, perhaps, it is just the cultivation of the early stage of the Ning Dan Realm, but in this low-level plane, he is definitely an ordinary master, okay?
In such a small border town, what super masters do you expect to fail? This is something that even Lin Xi would not believe, let alone others.
"When, three?" The old man didn't show much arrogance, maybe his status over the years made him not despise anyone, right?
But there was a lot of jealousy in his eyes, I don't know why, since these three people appeared, the old man had a feeling that the three young people seemed to be very powerful, and it was because of this feeling that he wanted to drive the three out all along, but he never did it.
Because, he wasn't sure if with his own strength, the three of them could really crush them together, after all, in the eyes of the old man, in these years, there are not many people who are really powerful and dangerous.
Even if they can't fight with their strength, and they exchange their lives for their own injuries, it will be an extremely troublesome thing next, okay?
Whoever it is replaced will be a little jealous of these three people.
"I've been with you until now, and I always feel like there's a pair of eyes behind me, and every time it's almost exactly the same place from us, it's not good, I want to know, is that your guys? Or does it have nothing to do with you guys? Lin Xi said very simply.
In fact, he had already found out about the problem, and that team seemed to have nothing to do with this team, but the distance they kept was almost exactly the same every time, which is very revealing.
Either it was the one who made the decision, or it must be their own team, although Lin Xi didn't feel the slightest hostility in that team, but when the team was moving fast, Lin Xi felt that it was better to say it after all.
That kind of powerful perception is not something that ordinary people can have, that is, Bai Motian among the three of them, can observe the team without releasing his divine thoughts at any time.
"What did you say?" The old man's face suddenly changed greatly, and the whole person was stunned.
Obviously, even he didn't feel anything like this before.
The first is that his own cultivation is limited, and he doesn't have particularly prominent divine thoughts, and it is extremely difficult to perceive everything around him.
The second is that he never thought that such a team would always keep a certain distance from his own team, and it is certain that this will not be the result of his own control, and at this point, his heart is extremely clear.
Since it has nothing to do with the team on their side, what is the team that has always kept a certain distance from them trying to do? This purpose is clear.
Although the entire Liuli City is very calm, the surrounding sects have been peeping at this city for a long time, okay?
There is no other reason, but because there is a mineral deposit in this Liuli City that almost all sects are very needed, and this kind of mineral deposit only appears in Liuli City.
The owner of his own house is the lord of this city, and he has always resisted.
With his cultivation in the later stage of Ning Dan, ordinary sects did not dare to openly oppose their own city lords, so they have always been peaceful.
But this kind of peace and quiet doesn't mean that there won't be an undercurrent, especially at this time, if you can't get the city lord, your own lady has become the most obvious target.
This is why Uncle Li has always followed his own young lady, how to say it, he is also a powerhouse in the Ning Dan realm, even if those people really want to do it, they will be more or less afraid of themselves.
However, he never thought that even so, there were still people in the dark who appeared in this desert, if others said it, it would be okay, but it was said by the three young people in front of him who seemed to have a rather mysterious origin, and even their strength was full of mysteries, this, but it must be taken seriously, okay?
At least, Uncle Li's face changed greatly at the first time, for fear that something would really happen at this time.
"They're coming!" Suddenly, Lin Xi's expression became serious.
Although he still didn't take a fancy to such a team, it was fatal to the team that helped him.
